    Hello! I'm Gail Nobles! Welcome to Times Ripley. Today I want to talk about Michael Jordan versus Julius Irving. They played against each other. They faced each other a total of eight times in NBA games. Julius Irving has a 6 to 2 winning record over Michael Jordan. They never met in the playoffs.

    Michael and Julius on a Hardwood battlefield where the legends take flight, each in their prime yet from seemingly different epochs. On one side we have Michael Jordan an electrifying comet, a force of nature soaring to heights previously unseen in the world of basketball! The man is pure dynamite and sneakers with his tongue out and his will to win unyielding already setting the NBA ablaze with his acrobatics and artistry.

    And there gliding into the picture is the one and only Julius Dr. J. Irving- the epitome of style and grace, a man who redefined the very essence of what it means to soar! The doctor arrives.

    The game commences! with a raucous charge! Michael Jordan takes the ball!The crowd gasps as he glides by the good doctor with unparalleled speed and embodying the spirit of youth- a whirling dervish! But wait! The doctor with his sublime agility, pivots, and out of nowhere produces a block that leaves eyes wide!

    A back-and-forth of brilliance ensues in a vertible chess match played with keen intensity and flair. Jordan responds showcasing not just his physical prowess but a basketball IQ that seems to defy his years. A feathery jumper here and acrobatic layup there. Truly remarkable! Truly remarkable!

    But let us not overlook the presence of the esteem Dr. J! With silky smoothness, he dances and walks through the air unleashing an arsenal of moves that only he can perform. His signature dump that defies gravity sending waves of electricity through the building, draining the very oxygen from the atmosphere! He is like the wind, the air we breathe- there is poetry in his motion.

    As the clock winds down the tension escalates. Each point is hard fought, each basket a declaration of athletic supremacy, and yet a bookkeeping of history’s pages.
    Folks, whether it is Michael with his youthful audacity or Dr. J with his legendary grace, we are the fortunate witnesses of a basketball renaissance! History has been made. Stories are told.

    From the timeline to icons from two different time zones captured in a moment where basketball transcends mere sport. It’s a spectacle of epic proportions - a game that could never truly happen, yet in our minds, the echoes of their greatness respond on the hardwood! And as they say in the grand Arena of life it's not just about the wins and losses, but the legacy left behind. What a world we live in.

    Yoel Romerois a Cuban professional mixed martial artist and former freestyle wrestler. He currently competes in the Light Heavyweight division for Bellator MMA. Romero formerly competed in the Middleweight division for the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) and was a challenger for the UFC Middleweight Championship.

    Romero mixed martial arts record shows 15 wins and 7 losses. Romero is scheduled to face Thiago Santos on February 24, 2024 at PFL versus Bellator.

    Yoel Romero is called a true MMA legend and the soldier of God. He competes at the highest level against the very best fighters to this day. Even though Yoel Romero is one of the best fighters to never hold a UFC title, you can help but notice him because he is one of the best fighters. It’s hard not to look his way. It's hard not to recognize him. He’s got fans that call him the champ. They say he's a true warrior and a great freestyle wrestler.

    Remero was the '99 World Champion (five-time medalist at the World Championships), the '00 Olympic Silver medalist, a three-time World Cup winner (six-time medalist). . I could go on and on. As of Feb 7, 2023, he is #3 in the bellator Light Heavyweight Rankings. Romero is incredible and has not retired. He’s still working as a warrior in the MMA.

    I’m Gail Nobles. Thank you for listening to Times Rippley.

    Hi! I am Gail Nobles, and you’re listening to Times Ripley. PBS is the best in documentaries. PBS is a free-to-air television network and is different than CBS, ABC, and NBC. I've always called it the learning broadcast television station. It’s the station where we watched Mr. Rogers and Sesame Street as children.

    As an adult, I began to watch PBS documentaries. I learned about the newspaper LA times and how it started. The name of that documentary is Inventing LA: The Chandlers and Their Times. The city’s most powerful family.

    Another great PBS documentary that I like is Eyes On The Prize. It tells the story of the Civil Rights Movement.

    The Wizard Behind The Curtain is a wonderful documentary about the fascinating life of L Frank Baum, the author of the Wizard of Oz.

    And there is the Walt Disney documentary. It’s about his complex life and enduring legacy from his early days creating Mickey Mouse.

    And there's more documentaries from PBS. Just look for the TV show “American Experience”. Just go to pbs.org or YouTube to follow and subscribe to the show.
